Truck-Bomb Finding

Defense Secretary Cohen said Air Force Brig. Gen. Terryl Schwalier, commander of a US base in Saudi Arabia hit by a truck bomb last year, failed to assess the danger of such an attack and denied the officer a promotion. Schwalier, expressing sadness for families of the 19 airmen killed in the attack, said he would resign. Gen. Ronald Fogleman quit as Air Force chief of staff over Cohen's decision.
